This was a great meal. Good friendly service and all reasonably priced. Even the house wine was good. As boring as it sounds, the spaghetti bog was nice and the pizza was perfect. We have a rule of a different restaurant each night whilst on holidays - but I have a funny feeling that we will bend the rule for... More

We have thought about going to TJ's often during our three visits to Langkawi but just never seemed to get around to it so after a couple of pleasant cocktails on the beach watching a beautiful sunset last night we felt like Italian so TJ's it was. Very friendly greeting, we had a cold bottle of wine on the table... More

We recently went to this restaurant, tucked away on a little side road towards the Southern end of the beach (green sign). It is definitely worth a trip. The pizza is absolutely delicious - crispy base, plenty of topping - they must have a wood fired oven. Their beers were also really, really cold - exactly what you need after... More

The chef was actually on a day off when we visited TJs, but his brother said he'd cook us a pizza and it was super - nice thin crust and flavourful topping. Will definitely give it another try when we return to Langkawi.

Hi all, we went there twice to have a little break from the traditinal foodcourts and that was a very good choice! Good food with a personal twist ( oil with chilipepers). Pasta and pizza's both are delicious, don't forget to order for the garlic bread. The owner and staff have an interesting history of travelling, would be good if... More

The reviews brought us to TJ's. I am happy that we went there as we loved the penne pollo so much that we decided to have it some time again before leaving Langkawi. The food is very good, the staffs very friendly. Highly recommended.

Cheap and cheerful. Not the place to go for an anniversary dinner but offered good quality meals, generous portions and rough reds. Construction site Across the side street does not contribute to the ambience! 100 myr 2 meals with 2 beers and Glass wine.

Anita has created a fantastic selection of Asian dishes for lunch at T Jay's. We have visited 4 times since the launch last week and I cannot praise her cooking highly enough. The depths and subtlety of flavours are absolutely amazing. An absolute MUST for anyone who enjoys Asian food. Don't worry if anyone in your party is not too... More
